Alberta is opening up the Pfizer shot to everyone age 12+.  Apparently Health Canada guidance came out this morning approving use in teens.

Got my second shot. I've felt like shit, but that is kind of normal for me. my arm doesn't hurt nearly like it did the first time around, at least. 
PDH!

Second shot of Pfizer-Biontech for my parents today.

Same for me - my arm hurt more with the first shot but I also felt sick after the second one.

Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

My dad got his 1st AZ dose yesterday, no significant secondary effects. He'll get the 2nd dose in 3 months.

Well, after prodding from friends and colleagues, I've updated my registration saying I'm in a risk group (BMI >30).

Reason I didn't do this earlier was
a) feeling other people likely needed the shots more urgently than me
b) being too proud to admit to it

I called for a date, but they say I will be contacted automatically when new contingents become available "soon-ish" and low key chiding me for not registering correctly from the start, because almost all risk persons in their system have had at least one shot. -_-

Got my first one today. :w00t: Got a bit ahead of the line on it, because I'm working at the upcoming municipal elections this month.

I'm surprised at a few things.

Our own 'BMI gives you early vaccine access' is 40.  So I'm surprised yours is 30, because I kind-of assumed most Texans would be over 30. -_-

I also thought that Texas would be at the point where everyone who wanted a first shot would have had one by now.

Also, the federal recommendation is that BMI >40 is risk group, but Vienna has them in high risk group, and 30+ BMI in "normal" risk group.
